Country ballad with a very serious theme
Story behind the song
suicide is a tragic event and we've all known someone who felt as though it was their only recourse...I wrote this with them in mind
Lyrics
When you search through your heart
For what matters to you
And it tears you apart
Knowing what you've been through
When you look in your life
And there's nothing but pain
Cause everything that's right got lost in the rain
When the heart of the matter doesn't matter at all
Cause your dreams have been shattered by the force of the fall
There's a Friend who is waiting to carry you through
To the Father above the heart of the matter is you
When you look down the road and there's no hope in sight
Well it's hard to go on when you can't see the Light
When what is the matter is just the will to survive
And finding a reason for being alive
When the heart of the matter doesn't matter at all
Cause your dreams have been shattered by the force of the fall
There's a Friend who is waiting to carry you through
To the Father above the heart of the matter is you
God doesn't care about silver or gold
It doesn't matter at all
The Father above is reaching with love...to you
When the heart of the matter doesn't matter at all
Cause your dreams have been shattered by the force of the fall
There's a Friend who is waiting to carry you through
To the Father above the heart of the matter is you
Oh, all that matters is you...yeah...yeah
There's a Friend who is waiting to carry you through
To the Father above...the heart of the matter is you
